Should I hook up my surround speakers to the Surround side or rear surround outlet posts ?????
Most sound or placement ??? i have a 5.1 system with very good speakers...
Thanks, Dean

Surround Side is the standard hook up for 5.1. Rear surround is used in 7.1

Are you going to keep those NHT Superzero speakers?

I have a pair of Superzeros I bought 20 years ago for use as rear channels in my 5.1 system. They were good with my old JBL L100s, worked quite well with my original SongTowers, and I still use them today with my Veracity STs. Their overall neutral balance goes well with Jim Salk & Dennis Murphy's sense of neutral balance. They're small and easy to mount on walls.

Definitely sides as NIN said.

As was said about the surround terminology (altho some older units have called surrounds "rears"). Use this to help for placement https://www.dolby.com/us/en/guide/surround-sound-speaker-setup/5-1-setup.html
